About this deal

Maia’s letter leads her to Rio de Janeiro. The young woman, still grieving the loss of a father who gave his all for his daughters, follow the clues to a crumbling mansion in Brazil. It is from this mansion that Maia starts to connect the story of her life. Her research leads her eighty years earlier to a time when a young lady named Izabela Bonifacio’s convinces her father to let her follow architect Heitor da Silva and his family to Paris. Curious to see the world, Izabela considers this as a perfect opportunity to follow her dreams. She meets an ambitious sculptor known as Laurent Brouilly in Europe and immediately knows that her life will never be the same again. What follows is an intriguing tale of discovery, heartbreak, and finally, love. The Seven Sisters’ series is loosely based on the ancient stories and myths surrounding the Seven Sisters of the famous Pleiades star cluster. Also glad I watched - and would recommend you watch - Harry's recap of the seven previous books to remind you of who was who and where and when! There is surprisingly not too much rehashing in this novel.

CeCe D’Aplièse has never felt she fitted in anywhere. Following the death of her father, the elusive billionaire Pa Salt – so-called by the six daughters he adopted from around the globe and named after the Seven Sisters star cluster. The final novel in the Seven Sisters series is now out now! The book was published on the 11 May 2023. What are the other books in the Seven Sisters series? Maia asked Georg why Pa Salt chose her. He did not know. What was Pa Salt’s connection to Brazil? He answers that on a personal note he did not. He did mention he had a number of business interests there «of course». But that he had similar business interests in many places around the world. No idea about your fathers private live, when Maia ask if the woman he had with her was his wife or girlfriend. Did he lie?? In the last book he gets very emotional because merry looks like someone he knows. O prie visa šito ir jau taip durnai skamba tas persekiojimas. Nes jo priešas staiga tampa irgi superduper milijonierius, tai common ..jei tave norėtų užversti, spec. Pro samdytųsi. O gal tu pagaliau apsaugą pasisamdyk. O gal permąstyk paskutinius dešimtmečius. Ar tikrai tave persekioja? Ar yra kokių tam rodiklių? Tiesiog gal jau atsipalaiduok? Es cierto que a veces da la sensación de que se dan demasiadas casualidades, que las cosas ocurren muy oportunamente en determinados momentos y que algunas pueden estar cogidas con pinzas, pero la verdad es que me ha dado lo mismo. He disfrutado muchísimo a lo largo de una década con estas novelas y me encanta ser parte de ese gran número de lectoras y lectores que han viajado literariamente por todo el mundo detrás del origen de todas estas hermanas y su padre adoptivo.Archie, brown eyes, chiseled features. Wavy hair. Dimples. His father died in the Boer war. 7 years before he visits flora on east Waithe Hall. In 1909 he is 21. Zeus was also the god who commanded Atlas to hold up the earth and sky on his shoulders. Because it suited my plot, I split the character into two; the billionaire tycoon Kreeg Eszu and his son, Zed Eszu – Kreeg being an anagram of ‘Greek’ and the surname Eszu being an anagram of ‘Zeus’. Maia becomes involved with the disreputable Zed Eszu whilst studying at university. Locations and objects Beide Handlungsstränge - einmal die Geschichte um Maia, die im Jahr 2007 spielt, und dann die Geschichte um Izabela aus dem Jahr 1927 - haben mir sehr gut gefallen. Beide Handlungsstränge sind gut und flüssig zu lesen dank des leichten und unkomplizierten Schreibstils. Allerdings kamen bei mir leider oft die Emotionen nicht an. Ich fühle gerne mit den Figuren mit; das war mir hier nicht möglich. Ich blieb quasi nur ein Beobachter, war nicht mittendrin in der Geschichte.

I’m sure that like me, there will be one sister in particular you will most identify with, and a sister you like the least. However, the beauty of writing about the girls is that each of them have their own unique strengths and weaknesses. Just as we all do. You can call him when we get closer. Would be embarrassing if it were a Russian oligarch. Theo then asked if pa salt ever rented it out. Which she declined. Antes de que nadie lo pregunte, este libro NO se debe leer (porque poder, obviamente se puede) sin haber leído los anteriores porque perderían toda su gracia y las muchas sorpresas que esta octava novela va revelando a quienes llegan a ella después de conocer el origen de Maia, Ally, Star, Cece, Tiggy, Electra y Merry. Eighty years earlier, in the Belle Epoque of Rio, 1927, Izabela Bonifacio’s father has aspirations for his daughter to marry into aristocracy. Meanwhile, architect Heitor da Silva Costa is working on a statue, to be called Christ the Redeemer, and will soon travel to Paris to find the right sculptor to complete his vision. Izabela – passionate and longing to see the world – convinces her father to allow her to accompany him and his family to Europe before she is married. There, at Paul Landowski’s studio and in the heady, vibrant cafés of Montparnasse, she meets ambitious young sculptor Laurent Brouilly, and knows at once that her life will never be the same again.Ok, disclaimer, because I'm sure it will be an unpopular opinion, but I DID actually enjoy it. There were just a lot of little things that bugged me. I was never a huge fan of Lucinda Riley's writing, and I'm not sure which parts of this were hers and which were her son's, but I'm really not a fan of the dialogue. I hate how often the characters call each other "my love". It rings false and I don't know anyone who actually talks like that. There are also a few grammatical errors/word choice errors, and I admit that those really bother me. It's just not a writing style I like. BUT, I do like the stories, which is why I kept reading after the first one. First off, I must ask, how did this series win any awards? I am completely and utterly baffled why something so unbelievable could go ahead and snatch a couple of awards. Mind boggling. Gerçekten kalbim acıyor. İç içe geçmiş birden fazla duygu yaşattı. Resmen bir dizi/film tadındaydı. Hiç böyle bir kitap beklemiyordum. Özellikle kitabın ortalarına doğru uzatıldığını bile düşündüm. 🤦🏼‍♀️ Nasıl böyle düşündüm?! Kendime hakaret etmek istiyorum! Seneler sonra bile böyle güzel bir kitabı unutacağımı zannetmiyorum. Öyle noktalar vardı ki gözlerim dolu dolu okudum. İçime dokundu. Şuralarda bir yere ... Bu nasıl bir yazar? Ağlatmıyor da! Ağlasam belki geçer diyeceğim ama ağlayacağım derecede bir kitap olmamasına rağmen nasıl bu kadar etkilendim?! 😞 Her ne kadar kitapta bize anlatılan iki kişinin hayatı gibi gözükse de inanın bana hiç öyle değildi. Özellikle babaları.. eğer doğru düşünüyorsam... söyleyecek sözüm yok sana. Nasıl güzel bir insansın sen. Peki ya ülkeler? Öyle güzel anlatmış ki! Ah resmen oradasınız! 🌠
